Premier League side West Ham United are to set to rival Crystal Palace in the quest to sign Blackburn Rovers star Bradley Dack, according to reports from The Sun.

The 24-year-old has been in sensational form for Tony Mowbray's men this term, scoring 11 goals and producing 6 assists in 18 appearances this term.

His form for the Lancashire outfit attracted the interest of Tottenham Hotspur in October, with West Bromwich Albion also bidding £20million for the attacking midfielder a couple of months ago, which was ultimately rejected from Rovers.

But reports have now surfaced that Premier League duo West Ham and Crystal Palace are set to bid around the £20million mark for the playmaker, who has scored 29 goals in 60 games for Blackburn since arriving at Ewood Park last season.

Hammers boss Pellegrini is said to have an attacking midfielder on his January radar, with Manuel Lanzini still out of action with a knee injury, whilst Eagles boss Roy Hodgson wants Dack to join a Palace attack consisting of Andros Townsend and Wilfried Zaha.

Blackburn currently sit 10th in the Sky Bet Championship table, just five points off the playoff places.

The Verdict

It was only a matter of time before even more Premier League teams would join Tottenham in the race to sign Dack. He has been simply magnificent for Rovers over the last couple of years with the amount of goals and assists he has accrued, and it would be a huge blow if he were to leave in January.
